I thought it best to publicly announce those with Magistrate positions for the coming year, those vested with the power by my office to place a person under arrest. They may do so as they judge appropriate to the Empires best interest. These individuals have sworn an oath to wield this power fairly and with the interests of law and order in mind without bias and prejudice. Resisting arrest as mentioned elsewhere is itself a felony.

I have appointed three new City Magistrates for the coming year and I wish them every success. Darius Slake to Deci, Lucian Flynn to Alguz and Kurth Honeyman to Rodanne.

Gileenim with events of the Dawn does potentially require a Magistrate going forward and I would like to employ someone in to the care of Bildteve whilst I continue in the Role as Covenant. A stepping stone in to these roles is the one of Journeyman Magistrate if one has no experience and we are currently looking to employ two new Journeyman in this coming year.

If these roles are of interest then please contact me privately with two references from within an Imperial Institution who are willing to vouch for your credibility and ability to oversee the Law of the Land.

May I request that one of our chief church leaders, Ghulston, is considered for the role of Journey Magistrate?

It seems only right and proper that as a Church which actively promotes the hunting down of Outlaws who threaten our society and the very fabric of our glorious Empire that this is the case. It would also assist in strengthening the Empire and ensure that our enactment of justice is swift and with due process without the need for long journeys to Watch Houses and the Courts which are often many miles away.

We do not appear to have any Magistrates on our Isle and our court rooms are empty - this is a void we would like bridged… I know this has the support of the current main band of church members and local residents so my question is, is there any way that this may be considered ?

As you may or may not know, we recognise and embrace the potential evil within all individuals which we then use in an efficient manner to complete any given objective. We are if anything gnostic recognising and showing due respect to most other Gods provided they in turn show due respect for the law which for us transcends death…

As such, we do not experience any political or social pressures for the dispensation of justice despite our particular lifestyle leanings and I state this in order to allay any concerns an individuals or groups may have about this request. We may be evil, but we are not cruel and we do not like suffering or pain to be inflicted upon those innocent and vulnerable members of our glorious Empire to whom we have taken a solemn vow to protect.

Being evil and being cruel are two sides of a coin and Id hope anyone in the mercenary community would see past such a see-through insult to their intelligence. Just because you choose to only be cruel to the people who it is deemed its socially acceptable to be cruel to doesnt give you a free pass. Its that kind of thinking that gives you such warped ideas of humanity as a whole that can let you believe there is evil inside everyone. There's not. There's evil inside insidous, power grabbing, monstrous people. But thankfully, you are and always will be the slim minority.

It is not for me to question those that make the law but personally I hope that no one of your church is appointed as a journeyman magistrate. It is inherently wrong to appoint a creature of dark heart to a position that involves applying justice and the law. Whilst you may follow the law I believe the law also requires a just and fair hand as this is for the greater good of all.

If your church wants redemption and its members want redemption and this is the reason for you making such a call then I have some understanding for your actions. If this is just a way to legally commit acts of cruelty then I am whole heartedly against you, your church and everything you stand for.

If your church contains members of the undead I also request that you offer them redemption by my hand, I am willing to redeem your undead members for the great light so that their sins may be forgiven and they may transcend to the light and bring the greater good and light to the world. The undead that can be, need to be redeemed; their souls need to be shown and passed to the light so that they may pass peacefully onto their proper after life when their time comes and they have proven their true worth as agents of the light.

Your undead members may contact me privately should they wish for their souls to be redeemed and brought to the light.
